SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Post
Katrina Management Reform Act
(PKEMRA), codified within Title 6 of
the U.S. Code, requires the FEMA
Administrator to provide Federal
leadership necessary to prepare for,
protect against, respond to, recover from
or mitigate against a natural disaster, act
of terrorism, or other man-made
disaster. This responsibility includes
planning, training, and building the
emergency management profession by
building a comprehensive incident
management system with State, local,
Tribal and Territorial (SLTT)
government personnel, agencies and
authorities, and helping the emergency
response providers to effectively
respond. 6 U.S.C. 314. As part of this
responsibility to help and support
emergency response providers, FEMA
supports efforts to train and assist in
organizing citizen responder programs.
With Executive Order 13254, Citizen
Corps was launched as a Presidential
Initiative, on January 29, 2002 with a
mission to harness the power of every
individual through education, training,
and volunteer service to make
communities safer, stronger, and better
prepared for the threats of terrorism,
crime, public health issues, and
disasters of all kinds.
Another FEMA Citizen Responder
program, the Community Emergency
Response Team (CERT) was originally
developed and implemented by the Los
Angeles City Fire Department in 1985.
Since 1993 when this training was made
available nationally by FEMA,
communities in 28 states and Puerto
Rico have conducted CERT training.
FEMA supports CERT by conducting or
sponsoring Train-the-Trainer and
Program Manager courses for members
of the fire, medical and emergency
management community.
To fulfill its mission, the Federal
Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) Individual and Community
Preparedness Division (ICPD) will
collect information from Citizen Corps
Councils and Community Emergency
Response Team Programs through the
Citizen Responder online registration
form. The Citizen Responder
registration form will allow FEMA as
well as SLTT personnel to evaluate
whether prospective Councils/
Community Emergency Response Teams
(CERTs) have the support of the
appropriate government officials in their
area, ensure a dedicated coordinator is
assigned to the program, and provide an

public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Service; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Service enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Service minimize the burden
of this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of
information technology.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,

Abstract: The Endangered Species Act
of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.), specifies the process by
which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service and the National Marine
Fisheries Service (Services, we) make
decisions on listing, delisting, or
changing the status of a listed species,
or revising critical habitat. Any
interested person may submit a written
petition to the Services requesting to
add a species to the Lists of Endangered
and Threatened Wildlife and Plants
(Lists), remove a species from the Lists,
change the listed status of a species, or
revise the boundary of an area
designated as critical habitat. The
petition process is a central feature of
the ESA and serves a beneficial public
purpose.
